Queen Astrid of the Belgians, born Princess Astrid of Sweden in 1905, tragically passed away in a car accident in 1935, just months before her anticipated death. As a member of the House of Bernadotte, she married King Leopold III in 1926 and became the Duchess of Brabant. She later ascended to the throne as the Queen of the Belgians in 1934, dedicating her life to helping those in need, particularly women and children, through her charitable work.
